Answer:
b = -15/2
y = -3x -15/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of the y-intercept can be found from a point and the slope of the line by solving the slope-intercept equation for the intercept.
__
<h3>intercept</h3>
y = mx + b . . . . . . . equation of a line with slope m and y-intercept b
y -mx = b . . . . . . . . subtract mx from both sides
For the point (x, y) = (-2, -3/2) and slope m = -3, the value of b is ...
b = -3/2 -(-3)(-2) = -3/2 -6
b = -15/2 . . . . . the value of b for this line
__
<h3>equation of the line</h3>
Then the equation for the line is ...
y = mx +b
y = -3x -15/2
